Beswick miniature pinch valves are now available for 1/8-in. OD and 1/4-in. OD tubing. The PV series miniature pinch valve is designed to control fluid when it is advantageous to avoid fluid contact with mechanical components and elastomeric seals. Pinch valves achieve fluid control by clamping down on the outside diameter of the tubing in […]
Adjustable rapid pressurization valve protects pneumatic actuators
The RPV 10-32 ports, adjustable rapid pressurization valve from Beswick Engineering is used to protect a pneumatic actuator such as a chuck, press, or gripper from sudden bursts of high pressure. The internal needle valve restricts the initial movement of the actuator to a user defined speed, and then opens up upon sensing back pressure. This […]

It provides step-by-step installation and removal tips, complete with […]
Miniature 10-32 compression fitting for use with 1/32-in. OD tubing from Beswick
Reducing dead-volume and overall component size to improve product performance can by achieved by switching to smaller diameter tubing. You may have considered switching from 1/8 or 1/16 in. OD tubing to ultra-miniature 1/32 in. OD tubing but have not switched yet because you were not certain how to connect to the smaller 1/32 in. […]
